"DA ALVIN BRAGG TO JUDGE: PRETEND TRUMP IS DEAD - 12.12.24" countdown w/olbermann

(when i heard him say this i laughed out loud)

SPECIAL COMMENT: How did this not generate more headlines? It's just a proposed maneuver out of the legal morass Judge Juan Merchan has helped Trump create. But New York District Attorney Alvin Bragg has suggested that one way to solve this sentencing/but he's president/but we can't dismiss the conviction is to treat Trump - in a legal sense - the way you treat a convicted defendant who DIES before he appeals or is sentence.

In short: just pretend Trump is dead.



keith talked about it in a far better (and more entertaining) way than he wrote about it (above)

melania would be happy
Media could ignore him
Congress too
And trump could avoid paying taxes or going to jail

Only bad side is Vance would get inaugurated…
